As Erlang grows into new niches, more and more companies are betting on Erlang as a strategic, game-changing technology. In this track, you will hear from people who are using Erlang in business-critical settings or supplanting legacy technologies.

While Erlang is hardly the language of choice for mainstream game devs, it is making interesting inroads in certain niches. Handling complexity, robustness and massive scale seem to be the operative words for the use of Erlang in Gaming and Simulations, and many of the techniques employed are borrowed from the field of scalable Messaging applications - an area where Erlang is outstanding. In this track we combine case studies from all these fields.

Erlang-based test automation has been used in commercial products - not
least Erlang/OTP itself - for more than a decade, and research on
Erlang and model-based testing has gone on for almost as long. This track
covers test-driven development ranging from hands-on practical
industrial experience to the latest news from the research front.

Perhaps your use of Erlang has made you curious about other functional programming languages? Perhaps you are faced with having to understand and interface with other languages in your work? Or perhaps you just want to learn something new? This track lets you widen your horizons and delve into things non-Erlang.

As Erlang grows into new niches, more and more companies are betting on Erlang as a strategic, game-changing technology. In this track, you will hear from people who are using Erlang in business-critical settings or supplanting legacy technologies.

As Erlang's popularity grows, it keeps breaking into new niches and companies not previously associated with the language. In this track we get to listen to the experiences of users better known for their association with other technologies rather than Erlang.
